Never come empty handed with these Chocolate Chunk Muffins. They are vegan and can be made in only half an hour. Perfect to bring to spontaneous parties or get-togethers!
I'm that kind of girl that always brings food to parties and just loves to surprise friends, family or co-workers with homemade, vegan treats. But sometimes I don't have a lot of time and need recipes that go really, really quick and are easy to make. Muffins are in those cases one of best choices, because they bake much faster than cakes. And Chocolate Chunk Muffins are a classic - everyone loves these.
They are really easy and quick to make. While the oven preheats, simply whisk the dry and wet ingredients in one bowl (one-bowl-recipe!), pour them in the muffin tins (an ice cream scooper makes this super easy) and then bake them in the oven for about 15-20 minutes. Easy as that.
If you want fruitier versions, you can sub the chocolate chunks with fruits like blueberries or raspberries, so this muffin recipe is very versatile. It's the perfect base recipe for all your muffin adventures! :)
Never-Come-Empty-Handed Chocolate Chunk Muffins
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
- ⅔ cup almond milk
- ½ teaspoon coconut vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup vegan chocolate chunks
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 360°F/180°C.
- In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (except the chocolate chunks), whisk, then add all the wet ingredients and whisk again until it's a smooth batter.
- Fold in the chocolate chunks.
- Fill the batter in muffin wrappers or use a lightly oiled muffin pan and put them in the oven for about 20 minutes. (Use the Toothpick Method to make sure the dough is done in the middle.)
- Let them cool off a bit before enjoying them!

I am going to try these, most definitely, as always looking for new vegan cake recipes. However, I've never used vinegar in cake/muffin making before. Could you tell me why it's included in the ingredients, please. I'm so curious to know.
Thank you
Su
Bianca says
Hi Su, the vinegar and the baking soda react so that the muffins rise more and get fluffier without the use of egg or an egg-replacement. Hope you like them! :)

The good news? They ARE quick to mix and pop into the oven. The bad news? The recipe as given really only makes 7 smallish muffins. Seriously? You would take 7 muffins to a party? Please modify the recipe to produce at least a dozen, or else these are a waste of time and oven heat to make.
Eric says
I went ahead and filled 6 instead of the possible 7. I was disappointed it didn’t make a dozen and that the yield is not published.
India Bock says
Why does the creator have to modify it for you... just double the recipe
Joanne says
Delicious and so easy!

I have made these muffins today and they’re a huge success! My partner told me “mmm babe, these are SO GOOD, I love them!”. Lately I have been relying on the same cake and cookies, baking one and the other without changing at all. I wanted some change today and I’m glad I found your recipe. They made their way onto the baked goods at home :) Thank you!
PS: I like illustrating recipes that I like using, can I do it with yours?
Bianca says
hehe, I am so glad you made your partner happy with these muffins :) Of course you can illustrate them, I would love to see it when you do! <3
Diana says
So yummy! My toddler kept asking for these and ate at least tree! He usually just picks chocolate chips out of everything, so it's definitely a success
Bianca says
oh wow! I am really happy to hear that!
Elizabeth says
